I am wondering what the sentence. "Smart beginnings now can prepare you for changing conditions"

Please translate that into simple English.

Came from the paragraph:

"Conventional wisdom will save the day. Smart beginnings now can prepare you for changing conditions. This could be an historic month."

Thanks

  1. This sounds like it's from a horoscope - and if that is indeed the case, I can empathise with you - it can sometimes be very hard to understand what they are talking about, let alone interpret the meaning of them!!

    Here's my interpretation of the whole paragraph:

    "Common sense and everyday knowledge will be extremely useful to you (and possibly get you out of difficult situations). Making some strategic fresh starts in a few different areas will ensure that you are ready for some changes in your life. This could be a very memorable and possibly life-changing month."

    I know that this interpretation is longer than the original - but I often find that more description allows for a fuller picture than a really brief summary.

    As for the particular line you were wondering about, I'll now elaborate a little more on my interpretation of it.

    1. "Smart beginnings" - what are they?

    I think that the horoscope is referring to making a fresh start in some parts of your life. These may include refreshing friendships, family, work or lifestyle in general (etc.). However, I don't think a "smart beginning" only implies making a "fresh start" or "turning over a new leaf". I think it could also refer to trying some new things in your life, and establishing them properly (hence why they are "SMART beginnings", and not just "beginnings"). In my interpretation I tried to sum this up by saying "strategic" - i.e. whatever "beginnings", "fresh starts" or "new things" you might try to establish this month, make sure you do it with a *strategy*, a *plan* or at least some *tactics* in mind. Some examples might include making a new friend, trying a new dietary regime, trying to dress differently, starting at a new gym, starting to read a new type of book you wouldn't have considered before... etc. I think the bottom line is that the horoscope recommends that you *plan* this and don't just dive straight in without thinking. Make a "smart beginning".

    2. "prepar[ing] you for changing conditions" - what does that mean?

    I think that this part of the sentence links to what we just talked about - these "smart beginnings" you might make will be beneficial for you in the long run, because things in your life or in your world could possibly change soon. However, you will be protected from and equipped to handle these changes thanks to the "smart beginnings" you made!

    Hope this helps!!

    P.S. I am by no means an astrologer - I know very little about the subject - but I hope that I may have helped you by trying to dissect and interpret the mysterious wording of the horoscope!


  2. Start out sensibly = smart beginnings

    at this time = now

    can ready you for different situations. = prepare you for changing situations.

    So it means:

    Use your good sense now and you will be able to cope with changing situations in the future.

  3. What I think should be:  A cleverly planned position is well prepare for any condition of changes and will be a well remembered month.

    Do you like it.....give a second thought.
